A rare Grade II listed village house offering nearly 3,000 sq ft of flexible, three‑storey accommodation in the heart of Benenden. Greenview retains strong period character — exposed beams, multiple fireplaces and dormer windows — and sits directly opposite the village green and ancient church, with attractive village views from upper floors. The property is chain free and falls within the sought‑after Cranbrook School catchment.
Now in need of comprehensive refurbishment, the cottage is best suited to a buyer who values historic fabric and has the budget and appetite for a sympathetic renovation. The site includes a sizeable two‑storey barn/loft space, workshop, outside WC and stores that present significant potential, but any conversion or structural changes will be constrained by listed‑building consent and planning requirements.
Practical considerations: there is only one bathroom as existing, and much of the interior remains original and dated. Parking is off‑street to the front and a decent enclosed garden sits to the rear, offering family-friendly outdoor space. Benenden’s village amenities are all within walking distance, with Cranbrook and Tenterden approximately 3.5 and 5 miles away for wider shops and services.
Viewing will best serve buyers intending to restore character while upgrading services and layout. The property suits families seeking a central village lifestyle with schooling options nearby, or purchasers looking for a high‑potential project in a desirable rural setting.
